How do triggers activate a specific skill?

Skills activate via keywords in user prompts, intent patterns identified through regex, specific file path globs, or technology-specific content detection within files.

What is the difference between BLOCK and SUGGEST enforcement?

BLOCK physically prevents tool execution until the skill is addressed (ideal for critical guardrails), while SUGGEST injects helpful context into the prompt without stopping the workflow.

How do I test my new Claude Code skill triggers?

You can manually test hooks using npx commands to simulate UserPromptSubmit or PreToolUse events, ensuring your patterns match the intended scenarios before deployment.

What is the 500-line rule for Claude Code skills?

It is an Anthropic best practice to keep SKILL.md files under 500 lines. This ensures the model's context window isn't overwhelmed, using reference files for detailed documentation instead.

Streamlines the creation and management of custom Claude Code skills using Anthropic's official architecture and trigger patterns.

Acerca de

The Claude Skill Developer provides a comprehensive framework for building and optimizing specialized capabilities within Claude Code. It guides developers through the entire skill lifecycle—from defining YAML frontmatter and configuring trigger patterns (keywords, intent, and file paths) to implementing advanced hook mechanisms like UserPromptSubmit and PreToolUse. By enforcing Anthropic’s 500-line rule and progressive disclosure patterns, it ensures that your custom skills remain performant and contextually precise, helping you build robust guardrails and domain-specific assistants without cluttering the model's context window.
